[QUOTE="Max Heat, post: 682000, member: 43153"] Seriously? What I mentioned there was based entirely on info that I got off of THIS site. I guess you can't believe everything that you read on the web. But you do have a point, in that taking something as "gospel" without verification, and then repeating it, is just as bad of a "sin" as being the original disseminater of the bad info, even though the intent was good. If what you say about stainless is true, it bums me out. What I read (on this site), was that stainless will get you approximately 20% more barrel life than non-stainless. But maybe it was only 1 person who said it (as an "opinion" maybe?), and then maybe I extrapolated it into a "general consensus"? I'm not sure. But apparently, it looks like I'm going to have to stand "corrected". Of course that means I need to look at YOU in the same light (as just an opinion). But being that you say you are one of the moderators on this site, it does give a lot more weight to what you have to say. Now you are saying the opposite of what I thought the situation to be for stainless barrel life. So what is YOUR estimate, percentage wise, of how much LESS the life of a stainless barrel is, shot wise? Also, why do YOU think that rem discontinued the non-stainless version of the 700 SPS in 7RUM (84152), if it has better life than stainless?? [/QUOTE]
